It amazes me that we are trying to paint Trayvon Martin as a bad kid because he has nudie pictures of some girl in highschool. EVERY...and I'm going to say every for this one (excluding gay ones of course.) high-school male would LOVE to get naked pictures of girls they go to school with. Trayvon actually just had 'game' enough apparently to do it or just knew enough kids to do it. If you want to be mad at anyone for that, be mad at the girls parents for allowing their daughters to take nude pictures of themselves because THEY will spread around the school.
I'm almost 100% sure that the ones judging this kid also claim to be good pro life Christians but are ok with his murder because he was a troubled teen unlike their perfect children.
More kid thinking...... That was 1 of several issues of bad behavior You do know its illegal for teenagers to be in possession of photos of nude underaged people
Yep I'm sure. They believe that kids don't send naked pictures of themselves and likely don't know much about facebook and the internet. If your kid has had a girlfriend in high-school...he likely has wanted to see her naked. He likely has thought about having sex with her. Whether the girl is game enough to do it is another story...but it's funny lol. He thinks male teenagers don't seek out photos of girls in their class. I guess he expects them to scold them. "How dare you! I am not having sex until I get married and you insult me with these pictures!"
You totally take the human aspect of this just to make him a monster. You didn't do anything questionable as a teen? Do you really think your children will be perfect their entire lives? What if your kid ends up murdered and then to put a cherry on top they bring up every mistake they made as an immature teen to defend the stupid decision made by an adult..who also made some questionable decision in his past....AS AN ADULT.
More like modern day thinking. You know there are phones right? Did any of your boys play sports? Were they popular? If so they likely have had nude pictures on their phone...if not have felt up a girls breast if not between her legs. If not have gone all the way. If they have, they aren't going to tell daddy about it...you know that right? Sure there are exceptions..like supposedly guys like Tebow...but they are RARE. You are arguing against science (not surprised there) hormones are going crazy at that age, even for girls. It's illegal but so is smoking weed. You are again trying to make it seem like it's a bad thing and he's now a monster for having nude pics of a 'underage' girl on his phone. If it were nude pics of a 8 year old girl I agree...but that's unlikely because if it were true we know that info would have leaked by now.
It's all about demonizing a teen for them to justify ihs death. That's sick. Fine say GZ had a right to defend himself and shouldn't go to prison. Fine. But demonizing a teen for taking drugs and being a straight male is a bit silly I think. Next we'll find out Trayvon has watched p*rn and "GASP" it's illegal to watch p*rn while under the age of 18! OMG YOU GUYS!?!?
Well, I sure as hell didn't take other people's jewelry or took part in frequent fighting as a hobby.
This is my whole point. All the focus is on the bad decisions the teen made and not the adult. Like I said...all these things are probably being spewed about this child by pro life God fearing good Christians. They are pro life until it's a troubled minority killed...then it's he should have known better. His parents are to blame..blah blah blah.
You know I don't think the Jewelry thing has been confirmed but it really doesn't matter. Trayvon was growing up and people make a lot of bad mistakes while doing so. What about the group of young kids that we saw in the video earlier acting like hooligans in the street? Teens and college age people make a ton of stupid decisions...and sometimes steal and fight. Some are trying to make it seem like the world is better off without Trayvon and that's disgusting. only because he was able to get some nude pics of a classmate likely, got into some fights, did some drugs... Man if we were to demonize Trayvon for some of this stuff we'd be demonizing some of our former presidents
Again you fail to comprehend that this kid was assaulting someone to the point that they were in fear of losing their life. That's self defense not murder
The totally ridiculous comparisons between abortion and all other types of "death" that pro-choicers come up with are hilarious. How can a person who doesn't believe in the death of innocent babies be ok with someone getting killed in self-defense!!!!!!1 Edit: That said, of course it's not a good thing that Trayvon is dead and I hope no one in here really believes that. If they do, shame on them. I do agree that plenty of kids that are on a bad track can turn it around.
I'm not sure many people on this board personally believe that. Maybe someone like Gawneco but there is a good segment of the American population that believes Zimmerman did a service to the nation by "getting rid of that thug". Just scroll down my facebook feed.
Life is life. I'm not arguing the verdict. I'm just not sure why the need to keep making it seem like the kid had it coming. There are people here with kids that don't understand the human aspect of losing a child. A LIFE. How much pain could that be? When it's your own flesh and blood, those "if he only wouldn't have" matter. Yes Trayvon made a mistake by attacking. GZ made the first mistake by getting out of his car. He made the idiotic mistake of getting out of his car when a strange person, that looked high, and possibly armed was lurking around AND he lost sight of him but, that did not matter because he had a gun and he was ready for any confrontation, he also wasn't going to let another "punk" get away...those decisions caused TM to attack and get killed. The law says it's self defense but, there were also once laws that allowed slavery and protected immoral decisions.
No, that's a classic example of kid thinking. My oldest was a 3 year varsity football starter. He was popular and if I caught him with those kind of photos on his phone, I would have deleted them and taken the phone from him. I am his dad not his best friend I don't justify bad behavior by saying everyone else does it so its ok. That's what one kid tells another.
I think that is a great point. People can't just blindly stand behind laws just because. Also yeah, some people seem to carry 0 empathy for the parents here. Saying that they should be siding with Zimmerman basically is hilarious and sad.
No you have the classic thinking of a old man that doesn't live in the same generation as these kids do. Your kid would do everything to make sure that you never saw it in the first place and that is easy enough to do So lets get this straight. Trayvon Martin is a bad kid because he had naked pictures of some girls on his phone? That's silly and quite frankly stupid. Again, if your kid was a popular football kid there is a pretty damn good chance he was intimate with girls in high-school if not had sex with them. You're quite naive to think not unless you held him under lock and key and had a tracker on him. Yes everyone does it because that's nature kid. 17 year old boys would love to have naked pictures of chicks in school...and if not then they are watching p*rn.
This is a pretty naive statment. Don't think anyone said it was acceptable behavior. They are just bad decision made by an immature child who happened to look much more physically mature. Your son is a football player so he is probably a pretty big guy and could possibly be mistaken for an adult up to no good in an unfortunate circumstance and killed. AS A PARENT, You wouldn't focus on the bad decisions made by the ADULT in the case? You wouldn't wish GZ had just stayed in his F****** car?
Granville what year did your star varsity football player popular son graduate? in this day and age, phone sexting is a major phenomenon among young people. and you're still running with Trayvon was a criminal because he had child p*rn? that's the part that irks me. being called "another TM supporter" doesn't get me riled up. I knew Zim wouldn't be found guilty about six months ago... but yeah, I support the grieving family of the dead teenager with thc in his system and underage (teenage) nude photos on his cell phone.
